A planet is a large, rounded astronomical body that is neither a star nor its remnant. The best available theory of planet formation is the nebular hypothesis, which posits that an interstellar cloud collapses out of a nebula to create a young protostar orbited by a protoplanetary disk. Planets grow in this disk by the gradual accumulation of material driven by gravity, a process called accretion. The Solar System has at least eight planets: the terrestrial planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, and the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. These planets each rotate around an axis tilted with respect to its orbital pole. All planets of the Solar System other than Mercury possess a considerable atmosphere, and some share such features as ice caps, seasons, volcanism, hurricanes, tectonics, and even hydrology. Apart from Venus and Mars, the Solar System planets generate magnetic fields, and all except Venus and Mercury have natural satellites. The giant planets bear planetary rings, the most prominent being those of Saturn. 🪐Planets Size Comparison V1🌘 Ceres/Dwarf Planet 939 Km Orcus/Trans-Neptunian Dwarf Planet 960 Km Sedna/Dwarf Planet 1,000 Km Quaoar/Dwarf Planet 1,110 Km Makemake/Dwarf Planet 1,430 Km Haumea/Dwarf Planet 1,632 Km Eris/Dwarf Planet 2,326 Km Pluto/Dwarf Planet 2,376.6 Km Kepler 37b/ExoPlanet 4,510.7 Km Mercury/Smallest Planet in the Solar System 4,879.4 Km Mars/Second Smallest Planet in the Solar System 6,779 Km Venus/Second Planet...
